Neuroplastic Pain

Reconnecting mind and body to move past stuck pain signals and turn down the volume.

Mind and Body Therapy

A neurobiological approach to processing pain

Your system is designed to adapt. You possess a remarkable capacity to adapt and find balance.

Pain Reprocessing Therapy

An approach designed to retrain the brain to interpret signals in the body and break the chronic pain cycle.

Trauma Therapies

Modalities: ART, EMDR, Brainspotting, Flash

Trauma reprocessing therapies targeting the limbic system in the brain that helps resolve stuck body sensations, pain, physiological responses, memories, emotions, and beliefs.

Somatic Focused

Emphasis of the body’s role in what is happening right now.

Creating a mindful focus of noticing the internal experience.

diving into the mind-body connection

Pain is a Survival response

Our brain sends the body danger signals when we are injured in the form of pain. Yet sometimes, our brain misfires and sends these signals when there is in fact no structural damage. This is what’s called Neuroplastic Pain.

In therapy we may:
Explore ways the issue manifests and is nurtured
Process trauma keeping the symptoms stuck
Develop new neural pathways in how the brain handles stress and interprets danger
Learn strategies you can use at home

A different approach to chronic pain treatment

Pain Treatment Approach

Pain Assessment

Assessment for mind-body syndrome and neuroplastic pain

Collaborative treatment with other providers

Pain & Trauma Processing

Chronic pain is often a miscommunication between the mind and body and stuck trauma in the body. Treatment will focus on:

Breaking the pain-fear cycle
Show the brain the problem, and connecting back to the body
Processing out the blocks and trauma
Learning tools along the way

Maintenance

Exploring your post-traumatic growth

Mindset for moving forward

Tools for success

Pain is a normal human experience & evolutionary way of helping us survive

And sometimes pain is a miscommunication from brain to body

Addressing chronic pain or other types of mind-body syndromes in therapy will start by assessing if it is Neuroplastic, followed by a blending of therapeutic approaches that will help the brain course correct and stop sending those danger signals.
